I am trying to setup with my 2016 NBT Evo however running into the issue where the car says 'Install BMW Connected App'

I have attached a few photos showing the app status. WhatsApp Image 2024-05-08 at 17 31 10_90f0d645 WhatsApp Image 2024-05-08 at 17 31 10_e0e59311 WhatsApp Image 2024-05-08 at 17 31 10_b99e6c27

Do you have MyBMW installed, and does it have all the permissions granted? MyBMW's USB support is flaky, so you might have better success installing BMW Connected 6.4 (not 6.5), or BMW Connected Classic.

Found a solution to this, I installed the mini app, force stopped the mybmw app, connect to the car, when the popup appears, wait 3 seconds and click mybmw allow once and not granting it the permissions for open link. The app then appears to work.

Maybe an older MyBMW app is better but i was unable to find one
